Anlong Veng (Khmer: អន្លង់វែង, Ânlông Vêng [ɑnluŋ ʋɛːŋ]) is a district (srok) in Oddar Meanchey province in Cambodia. The main town in the district is also called Anlong Veng. The population of the district could not be counted during the 1998 census of Cambodia due to ongoing conflict during the time of the census.[2] It is estimated that 35% of the population in Anlong Veng were former Khmer Rouge soldiers including the Maoist dictator Pol Pot (Saloth Sar).[1]
